New YORK, Aug. I6.-Richard Sea
man Scott, who absconded in 1885 with
100000 belonging to the Manhattan
bank, OF which he had been an emplOye
about twenty years, and about whose dis
appearance and whereabouts there was
such a profound mystery, has made a
confession before Consul General Waller
at London. The story had almost died
out OF mind, but suit has just beeu in
stituted in the supreme court which dis
closes not only Scott 5 action, but the
fact that he was not alone in the stipend
Gus detalcation. This suit is against
John Il. Dunn, Scott colleague, Tor the
recovery of $40, 900.
The afidavits of the absconder made
IN London show that Dunn was a bigger
rascal than Scott, and that he was. partly
the cause of the latter crime.
lie states that he had taken from the
bank, prior to June l., 1885, various
small sums ~aggregating $4,000, and that
about this time, by reason of the change
Of officers, he feared his shortage might
be discovered. John h. Dunn, who is a
cousin of his wife, was pract cling law and
to him Scott fastened for advice. Dunn
asked him how much money was within
his reach. Scott said there was over a
million dollars in his charge, and Dunn
told him he had better take a million and
go to Canada. 1t would BE- enough to
cripple and compel them to compromise.
Scott took $500, 900 from the bank in
large bills and met Dunn. The latter
told him if he carried the stolen property
INTO Canada he could be cXtradited and ad-
vlsed him to leave the money with some
one. Scott hat night replaced the money
and determined to borrow enough
to make up his shortage.
He failed in this, however, and the
second day after he got a disguise. He
then took two packages of money. one
containing $40, 900 and another $4,000.
He then went to Dunn and handed him
the $40, 600 package, That evening he
went to Canada and stayed there till
September. He correspondent with Dunn
as per the latter's directions, and some
times received sums of money from him
in bills Of $500 and 81 900. In Sept. he
went to Europe and resided in London,
where his wife joined him in 1886.
The latter part Of 1856 attempts we're
made at a compromise with the bank,
and in December it is said an offer was
accepted by the bank to relieve him for
100000 Scott then wrote Dunn
telling him to get ready that
amount. Dunn replied in January of
this year that he had lost all the money
in speculation. Then came the crisis and
finally these proceedings were instituted.
Dunn's story of speculation was not
credited by Scott family or relatives in
New York. Dunn was arrested on Mon
day, of this week, and took the matter
very coolly. He was sent to Ludlow street
jail IN default of $3.50, 900 bail. He will
be indicted. Scott cannot be extradited,
Dunn is thirty eight years of age. The
whole story came out tonight and created
a great sensation.

WHOLESALE SEIZURES
Of British Vessels in the
Behring Sea.
For Violation of the Seal
Fishery Laws.
A Defaulter's Extraordinary
Confession.
Four Vessels Seized.

WASHINGTON, Aug. I6.-The secretary
of the treasury has received reports from
Capt. Shepard, commanding the revenue
steamer Rush, dated Ounalaska, Alaska,
July IL and IS, in regard to his cruise in
the waters of that vicinity. He says that
on July 8 in the Behring sea, fifty-nine
miles distant from Cape Cheerful he
boarded and examined the British schoon-
er W. p. Sayward of Victoria, B. c.,
and found that she was on a sealing vow
age and had been in the Behring sea for
four days. Her captain reported 4S5
sealskins on board, forty.nine of which
were takeniin the. Behring sea.
The vessel was under short sail and one
canoe with two Indians was out sealing at
the time. Her crew consisted of six white
men and seventeen Indians. The vessel
was seized for violation of section 1856 of
the revised statutes, and towed to Ouna-
laska, where the captured sealskins we're
delivered to the deputy United States
marshal.
The vessel and crew we're then sent to
Sitka for delivery to the United States
marshal and the crew was set at liberty.
On the 18th of July Capt. Shepard
seized the British steamer schooner
Dolphin, of Victoria, B. c., in the
Behring sea, forty miles from Cape
Cheerful She had been in the sea for
three days and had on board 6l8 seal
skins. Ten canoes and one boat were
out sealing at the time of sighting. A
dozen dead seals were taken on the
schooner from the canoes while the Rush
was approaching, and three skins from
seals recently killed were found in a
small boat. The crew consisted of seven
white men and twenty-six Indians from
British Columbia. They had a number
of fire arms and ammunition. These
were seized for violation of Sec. 1855 of
the revised statutes.
July l6 Capt. Shepard seized the
American schooner Lily L, of San
Francisco. which was found seal hunting
in the Behring sea, about sixty-eight
miles from St. George Island. Capt.
Todd, her master, admitted that he went
into the Behring sea to hunt seal, and
said that he had a perfect right to any
seal he might catch outside the nine mile
limit from shore.
July II Capt. Shepard seized the
British steam schooner, Grace, in the
Behring sea, ninety-six miles from Ouna-
laska, for violation of the seal fishery
laws. She had been in the Behring sea
ten days and had 100 sealskins on board.
Capt. Shepard saw one seal shot and
taken into a small boat while he was APP
preaching the schooner and saw many
more which had recently been killed.
The vessels were all sent to Sitka,
Alaska, and turned we to the United
States marshal for prosecution. The
British schooner Anna Beck, previously
seized, has also been sent to Sitka.

Arrival of the Thistle.

New YORK, Aug. l6.-The Scotch
yacht Thistle, about which much anxiety
has been expressed, arrived at the bar at
4 o'clock this morning. Capt. Barr re
ports a pleasant passage, except three
days rough weather and three without a
puff of wind. The rest OF the time they
had a light breeze. The Thistle is GER
tainly a pretty model and her appearance
does not belle her claims to speed. 1t will
take about two weeks to clean her up, set
her topmast and bend on her racing sails.
She came over under a small mainsail
topsail, staysail and lib. For two days OF
the trip she shook out everything. The
trip took twenty-one days.

Hanlan's Challenge.

TORONTO, Aug. l6.-Hanlan believes
that he is still the best sculler in America
and that If he was rot going to start for
Australia tomorrow he would have
another race with Teemer. He thinks
that he is a better man than Teemer, but
says that he was fairly beaten on Satur
day. He knows he can row three miles
forty seconds faster than he could four
years ago. He blames the bad start for
his defeat Saturday and says he has got
81 900 that he can row three miles on
Lake Quinslgamund IN less than 1910,
which is the fastest time Teemer is
credited with.
